Die Autofluoreszenz-Laparoskopie: ein neues endoskopisches Verfahren zur Verbesserung der Endometriosediagnostik
Autofluorescence laparoscopy is a new endoscopic technique that improves the detection of endometriosis by better visualizing active, non-pigmented lesions that are often mistaken for other peritoneal changes.

This study evaluated the diagnostic utility of autofluorescence laparoscopy compared to conventional white-light laparoscopy for detecting endometriosis in 83 women with clinical suspicion of the disease. Researchers used the D-Light AF system to identify lesions, finding that adding autofluorescence significantly increased the detection of histologically confirmed non-pigmented endometriotic foci. The sensitivity for diagnosing active non-pigmented lesions improved from 65% to 92%, while specificity rose from 68% to 84%, demonstrating a clear advantage over white-light examination alone. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the improvement of diagnostic accuracy for non-pigmented lesions using autofluorescence technology.
